Ford says the new design will include both a traditional two-door option and a new four-door option. The vehicle is said to be the flagship vehicle of an entire new line of “Bronco Family” off-road vehicles.

“We created the Bronco family to elevate every aspect of off-road adventure and equipped them with class-leading chassis hardware and exclusive technologies to raise the bar in the rugged 4x4 segment and take people further into the wild,” said Ford CEO Jim Farley. “They’re built with the toughness of an F-Series truck and performance spirit of Mustang -- and come wrapped in one of the most stunning and functional off-road designs that’s true to the original Bronco design DNA.”

The four-door 2021 Bronco will have available removeable modular roof sections – left and right front panels, a full-width center panel and a rear section. Roof panels on both two- and four-door models can be easily removed by unlocking the latches from the interior to provide the largest overall open-top view in its class to take in the sunshine or to gaze at the stars at night.
